Mike McCarthy: CeeDee Lamb's Back Injury 'Not of High Concern' for Cowboys vs. Texans

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy says a flare-up of wide receiver CeeDee Lamb's back injury during practice is "not of high concern" ahead of Monday's home game against the Houston Texans.

"He had something pop up in a seven-on-seven drill," McCarthy said, per Patrik Walker. "We'll look at him tomorrow, but I'm not of high concern."

Lamb was added to the Cowboys' Saturday injury report with a back injury and is officially questionable for Week 11, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

He has made 59 catches for 681 yards and four touchdowns in nine starts this season.

Lamb was one of 19 players listed on the Cowboys' Saturday injury report. Three players were listed as out, including quarterback Dak Prescott, who reportedly underwent season-ending hamstring surgery on Wednesday.

Jourdan Lewis will miss the game after sitting out practice this week with a neck injury. DaRon Bland, who has yet to play this season amid a foot injury, also remains out.

Lamb has started all nine games during the Cowboys' 3-6 start to the season. Most recently he made six catches on ten targets for 21 yards in Sunday's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

The Eagles loss was marked by a controversial incomplete pass to Lamb in the end zone. Lamb said after the game that he couldn't see the pass because the sun, shining through the windows in the Cowboys' AT&T Stadium, was shining in his eyes.

Lamb said after the game that he would "one thousand percent" be in support of the Cowboys putting up curtains over the windows, although team owner Jerry Jones then indicated that the team does not plan to change the in-game setup.

The sun wouldn't have been an issue for this upcoming Monday night home game, which is set to kick off at 8:15 p.m. ET.

With Prescott out and Lamb's status questionable, the Cowboys could be without their two biggest offensive weapons on Monday. McCarthy will hope starting quarterback Cooper Rush is able to bounce back from last week's struggles in order to lead the Cowboys to success against the Texans' top-ten pass defense.
